I got a few outfits from Charlotte Russe when I was in Vegas, and I also got a few outfits from Forever21 (online), and since many of you have asked for more fashion related posts, I figured id post some of my haul. Forever21 had a sale on this long black sleeveless cardigan for only $5.99! And I LOVE IT! That was probably the best bargain ever! I got a turquoise ruffle dress from Forever21 also, I used an old H&M belt I had to dress it up a bit. The short/tube top set (they are attached together like one whole piece) I got at Charlotte-Russe which also comes with a faux alligator skin belt. It's a bit too revealing for my taste (as in too much skin at one time) since I don't usually wear shorts (because I desperately need a tan LOL), so I most likely would wear it with a cardigan or the vest like shown below to tone it down, but it's super cute.

It's wrinkly because it was packaged tight when it was delivered to me. :(

The black sleeveless cardigan I got for only $5.99! over a solid heather gray shirt and some leggings:

Jumper from Charlotte-Russe:

Here is a look with the "Classic Dame" mattene lipstick I got at the CCO, the look below this I used "Full on Lust" lipglass. The eye makeup is the same for BOTH looks, since I was just messing with the lippies. :)

I've been a reader of your blog for about 2 months now, so I'm fairly new. I really really enjoy your blog and reading yours and other beauty bloggers' blog make me really want to start a blog of my own, but I know that I won't have time to maintain it, nor will I have much knowledge to impart upon the beauty world. =/ besides that, I'm still a poor college student who is trying to balance her budget between food, makeup, and clothes! haha :P

Anyway, I absolutely love your new outfits! the way you dressed up that turquoise dress is very clever, mostly because i am also in love with your white belt! :D and you look gorgeous in the jumper! i think since you have the height (and the legsss) you should show them off, esp since summer is only a couple of months away! As for the make up look, I prefer it with the pink gloss over the red one. hehe.

p.s. Has anyone told you that you have the MOST ADORABLE smile ever?! cute little teeth! :)

Gorgeous!! I haven't shopped at Forever 21 in so long!! I may have to go there again soon. Also, when I try to click "Go" on your tagboard, it wouldn't let me post at all. This is Jacquelyn btw and I tried and tried and it wouldn't let me.

Haha OMG yes! That's what I used to hate about overalls and stuff when I was growing up, having to take off the ENTIRE thing to take a piss! So annoying, I am gonna have to cut a hole in the crotch and put a zipper or some snap buttons for easier access, LOL!

so cute! bargain shopping is great isn't it?! lol. its funny cuz my BF's last name is Hunt and I always joke that when we get married that I'm gonna change my middle name to bargain. get it? Camilla Bargain Hunt? lol! i'm such a nerd..i know.

anywho. love the looks (clothes and makeup) as always! i love how your lippies always look. you have a great shape to your lips ;)

i'm in love with that jumper! its so cute! but tube tops never look good on me.. like my boobs arent proportionate to my body after having the babies! lol.

i wanted to ask you about the crest white stirps..after ur done with the whole box, how often do u use another strip just to maintain? i read your post about it, but i dont think you wrote anything about maintaining it and stuff. just wondring cuz i wanted to pick some up at walmart soon. thanks!

Ohhhh, I really like this entry!! I love the outfits in this post, makes me want to go shopping.. haha.. I really like the turquoise dress too, good idea with the belt, def makes me cuter! I especially like your makeup in this post, you look adorable! =)

Hi Kae, the instructions on the box say to use it everyday for about 2 weeks (14 days) but I don't recommend it because your teeth will get super sensitive so I say use it every other or every 2 or 3 days :)
